UACCB to offer conversational Spanish

The University of Arkansas Community College at Batesville’s Community and Technical Education department is offering conversational Spanish for beginners from 5 p.m.- 6:30 p.m. Feb. 26 - Apr. 11.

According to an article in Business Insider magazine, “you should learn Spanish because it’s not a foreign language anymore. It’s good for your career and it will unlock a world of travel destinations.”

Instructor Tim Bennett has taught Spanish for more than 25 years to high school and adult students. This class takes a conversational approach, with group and partner activities, storytelling and short readings to ease students into the confidence needed to speak the language. The beginner-level class is appropriate for those with no previous experience or those who want to practice what they have learned. The cost is $67 plus the cost of the textbook which can be purchased at the UACCB bookstore. The course will be held on Mondays and Wednesdays in the UACCB Row Johns Library Building, room 815.
